If I were the Devil;

I would gain control of the most powerful nation in the world;

I would deceive their minds into thinking that they had come from man’s effort, instead of God’s blessings and Grace;

I would promote an attitude of loving things and using people, instead of the other way around;

I would dupe entire states into relying on gambling for much of their state revenue;

I would convince people that character is not an issue when it comes to leadership roles;

I would make it legal and acceptable to murder unborn babies;

I would make it socially acceptable to take one’s own life, and invent the machines to make it convenient;

I would cheapen human life as much as possible so that the life of animals are valued more than human beings;

I would take God and certainly the mention of Jesus Christ Our Lord out of schools and the public square. But I would keep the study of Indian spirits, Hindu god’s and other false idol worshiping religions in the school, to be studied and admired by students and teachers. And I would make it to even the mention of Jesus’ name in school would be grounds for a lawsuit;

I would come up with drugs that sedate the mind, legal or not, and target the young, and I would get sports ‘heros’ to advertise them;

I would get control of the media, so that everyday I could pollute the mind of every family member for my agendas;

I would attack the family, the backbone of any nation;

I would make divorce acceptable and easy, even fashionable. If the family crumbles, so does the nation;

I would compel people to express their most depraved fantasies on canvas and movie screens, and would call it art;

I would convince the world that people are born homosexuals, and that their lifestyles should be accepted and marveled;

I would convince the people that right and wrong are determined by a few who call themselves authorities and refer to their agenda as politically correct;

I would persuade people that church is irrelevant and out of date, and that the Bible is made up and for the naïve;

I would convince the WORLD that there are many god’s and that what they believe is fine as long as it doesn’t hurt anyone else;

I would convince the WORLD that no one knows the real Truth about God. This would convince the people to believe “their own created and mixed philosophy of beliefs” and never search their heart and soul for the True source of Truth from the Lord God.

I would convince the WORLD that there are many ways, (loopholes) into Heaven. The Bible says in John 14:6, when Jesus says, “I am the Way the Truth and the Life: No man cometh unto the Father, but by Me.” and Acts 4:12, Jesus is our Only Salvation. {Our only way to Heaven is by our faith that Jesus Christ is the Lord}  I would CONVINCE people that this is narrow minded, and while being upset at this Truth, I will make them despise Christians, mock and whisper about them. Ill have them point out every time a Christian does something wrong, and they will be disgusted that they had the nerve to tell them about Jesus and His Word, when they are doing wrong just the same.

I would convince many in the WORLD that I, (the Devil) don’t even Exist. And that Heaven and Hell don’t exist and that they were just made up to scare the WORLD into doing good.

I would convince the WORLD in their own minds that if they were to die today, they along with 99% of everyone else, would go to Heaven….ha ha ha ha. Well unless you’ve done something REAL bad, of course, …ha ha ha! God said we are all born into sin and all need to come to Jesus, repent and turn away from our sins. Romans 3:23 (ALL have sinned and come short of the Glory of God) / 2nd Corinth- ians 5:14 (we all deserve to go to Hell, but (I) died for all our sins and rose from death. That we may have life eternal through Him that saved us, but are dead in our sins w/out Jesus)

Luke 13:5 (unless ye repent, you will perish). But I will make them think in their minds, that they themselves are not sinners and they will get offended at the very mention or thought of this idea.

I would dull the minds of Christians, and make them believe that reading God’s Word daily is not important, and that faithfulness, prayer and obedience to doing God’s Word are optional;

I do all this deception as a test with God’s permission, God could wipe me out of the picture forever with one word, but instead keeps me around to test your Faith, I love my job and if I don’t say so myself, I am very good at stealing souls from Heaven. So I think all I would do, I have done, and will continue to do.

If I were The Devil….
